Cottage Cheese Egg Bites

My Cottage Cheese Egg Bites recipe makes the most tender, delicious on-the-go high-protein breakfast with amazing flavor. It’s easier than the sou vide Starbucks egg bites recipe, but just as delicious. Make these ahead to make mornings a breeze!
I won’t say these are a copycat recipe because I’ve been making egg bites for years! Starbucks definitely made them famous, but now you can make them at home for family breakfast or meal prep like I do. I love how easy they are to portion and grab on the go, and the best part is that you get to add the toppings that fit your tastes. You can even make several varieties at one time.
My sister first introduced me to adding cottage cheese, and it is the secret ingredient in these egg bites. She even mixes cottage cheese into her Scrambled Eggs! You can’t taste it, but it keeps the eggs from getting rubbery when baked. The added moisture makes the best soft and fluffy texture in the oven, so there’s no need for the fancy sous vide process, and you can make more bites at a time.
